Biochem/physiol Actions

Integrase interactor 1 (INI1)/sucrose non-fermentable 5 (SNF5) is recruited to HIV-1 preintegration complexes before nuclear migration and represses the basal human immunodeficiency virus type 1 promoter activity. This gene is a tumor suppressor and mutations in it have been associated with various tumors.

INI1/sucrose non-fermentable 5 (SNF5) plays a vital role in transcriptional activation of inducible genes through chromatin remodelling. Loss of function mutations of the gene is associated with the pathogenesis of aggressive pediatric cancer and epithelioid schwannoma. The encoded protein triggers DNA-joining activity of the HIV-1 integrase in vitro. Additionally, it might also help in targeting the viral DNA to active genes. SNF5 interacts with E1 protein of human papillomavirus (HPV) and thus, enhances the efficiency of HPV DNA replication.

General description

INI1/SNF5, also known as SWItch/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) related, matrix associated, actin dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily b, member 1, is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 22q11.2. This gene codes for an essential component of chromatin-remodelling SWI/SNF multiprotein complexes.

Monoclonal Anti-INI1/SNF5 (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 2C2 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (SP2) and splenocytes from mouse immunized with a human INI1 fusion protein. Integrase interactor 1 (INI1)/sucrose non-fermentable 5 (SNF5) binds to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) integrase.

Immunogen

human INI1 fusion protein.
